Decolonizing wetness: it is where design begins - Dilip Da Cunha

The Habitat Research Center is very pleased to welcome Dilip Da Cunha for his seminar "Decolonizing wetness: it is where design begins." In 2017, Mathur and Da Cunha initiated a design platform called Ocean of Wetness directed to imaging and imagining habitation in ubiquitous wetness rather than on a land-water surface.
